    Hi
        We have two virtual directories in which our .NET controls reside. We
    host these controls in IE. These controls need full trust permission set. We
    tried to create a codegroup that has a URL condition http://localhost/* and
    gave full trust permission and tested by opening IE on the same machine as
    the server (that is why localhost should have been OK). Some parts of the
    controls worked but we got SecurityExceptions for others. We kept getting
    SecurityExceptions in one part or the other until we created 6 code groups
    with URL conditions
    http://localhost/*
    http://MACHINENAME/*
    http://127.0.0.1/*
    http://localhost/VirtDir1/*
    http://MACHINENAME/VirtDir1/*
    http://127.0.0.1/VirtDir1/*
    and gave full trust for all these code groups. The computer is not on any
    network. When it was hooked up to the a network, we didn't need all 6 code
    groups. It seems like the code access security mechanism is not able to
    figure out localhost,MACHINENAME and 127.0.0.1 as the same URL.
    I would like to understand how .NET applies these permissions and if there
    are any resources that discuss these things in detail.
    TIA
